Headquarters

The motherclan was a group of members of Riilebspecies who were believed to be descended from the First Riileb, a mythical being amongst the species. The eldest female member of the group would at the age of thirty in local years, the equivalent of 21 standard years, inherit the ClanRing, a piece of jewelry rumored to have been made by the First Riileb. The holder would rule all of Riileb society, although political infighting and trickery was common amongst the members of the motherclan in line to inherit the ring and the heir would often be removed by other Riileb further down the line of inheritance.[1]Tere Metallo was one such heir and was sold into slavery at the age of 25 by a sister who wished to inherit power instead.[2]
